"They would be my first choice in getting any procedure done when it comes to my eyes"

Treatment Received:Eye Specialist Consultation

Doctor Aquino and his staff were the most caring group of people I've ever met. They would be my first choice in getting any procedure done when it comes to my eyes.

My problem was they didn't accept my insurance Pacific Cross. I've got an appointment with Doctors Hospital next week and they are happy to accept my insurance. The lady that does the explaining about prices is not a people person and cares less about whether you understand her or not. I emailed her about somehow working with my insurance and never got a reply back. I thought it was rather odd the hospital accepted my insurance but they wouldn't. I felt I at least deserved a reply back.

"Carefully examined my eyes"

ACES Eye clinic is very professional! Excellent result. Amazing. They carefully examined my eyes, made me go through many tests to ensure the Doctor had all the correct information. Then we had a meeting and he explained the procedure and the risks.

ACES Dr. Victorio Cajita is indeed one of the best Doctres I have met. He is extremely professional, gives you clear understanding of the procedures. The staff and nurses are very helpful and polite. Simply Dr. Cajita leads a fantastic team and he is the best.

Treatment Received:Eye Specialist Consultation

I was very pleased here in Dumagute with all staff. I was referred to Dr Tan after my retina exam for possible refractory surgery. It would have been very easy for Dr. Tan to recommend surgery, thus making the clinic more money. He advised after a thorough examination that since I had had so many previous eye surgeries, the results and risks were too great and advised to simply get new eye glasses. Yes, I highly recommend Aces to everyone!!! My new glasses will be aprox 12000 pesos and exam and tests were about 2500 pesos.
